Clients sometimes mention that they feel pet stores charge too much and ask if I know of any cheaper places they can purchase items for their pet rabbit. My usual response is to try Dollarama or other dollar stores. They have an aisle just for pet merchandise that is often bunny-appropriate (even if it is labelled for a dog or a cat).

During a trip last weekend to my local dollar store, I found:- a pet hair brush*- a low-level rectangular shaped bin - this can be used as a litter pan- small plastic balls with bells inside them - a fun bunny toy!- water bottle - food dish- a litter scooper - the one I found came with little plastic bags in its handle.

Please note that not all these items are found in the pet aisle. For instance, the food dish is simply a small dish for humans, re-purposed for a bunnys' use. Lastly, don't underestimate the fun a cardboard box has for a bunny. Take a pair of scissors and cut out a door and some windows and it just might be their new favorite spot to lounge. * I personally use a manicure brush for Chestnut as his hair is so fine. This can also be purchased at the dollar store.
